The bucolic homesteading lifestyle...

23/08/2026

Here at the Daw Family Farm, we teach how to make cheeses, bread, do gardening, explain how we have built our strawbale house with solar-passive design, and how we use energy healing in our everyday lives, and organise farm tours as well...

We are open from March to November, and welcome small groups. It remains intimate and friendly.

For more information and bookings contact us via website https://thedawfamilyfarm.com/

We look forward to hosting you!

A cheese workshop in which you learn how to make them, take the recipe and samples home.

Chidlow is in the Perth Hills, where beautiful Lake Leschenaultia is!

The setting is in our colourful strawbale house overlooking the lush garden and the gently sloping valley.

We will provide morning tea in the garden if the weather allows!

Cheese!

Perfect timing for cuttings, separating plants and seeding them. I offer to show you how to do those things here at the farm.

Come and learn how to make your own sourdough bread. So healthy, so tasty, so satisfying.
Imagine serving the bread you made yourself to your family and guests!
The smell of freshly baked bread floating around the house...
The workshop unfolds within our strawbale home, and is taught by Ana who has been making bread for 15 years now, researching the best way to do it. It's amazing.
We give you a starter to take home as well as the bread dough you make.
As we wait between the rising phases of the bread, you can walk through the garden and enjoy light refreshments.
The exchange is $75 per person, children $45 for 9 years + and $25 for 5-9 years old.

Book via our website at thedawfamilyfarm.com, then scroll through 'workshops '

We are in Chidlow, the home of Lake Leschenaultia!

We look forward to meeting you then!
Ana, John and Emmanuelle

A goat workshop to learn if you are made for goats 🐐
They are special animals, funny, fussy, friendly, not like any others.
They have special needs, and before getting goats, it is a good idea to get an idea...
We love them, and they reciprocate well!
So come along to this event and find out about them!
We'll share everything we know and learnt in our goaty journey!
Contact us via https://thedawfamilyfarm.com/workshops-events/
We hope to see you then!
Cheers,
Emmanuelle
